[QUOTE="LazyKG, post: 89540, member: 12643"] Well, fellows, it's like this... ----- After setting the point gap correctly, cleaning the plugs and plug wire connections, setting the timing (as best I could while cranking the engine) with little of nothing to show for it, I hired my auto mechanic to come take a look. The choke linkage was not connected properly and the @#&*%*$! carb needed to be cleaned, specifically the inlet that the fuel shutoff solenoid closes. Put the carb back on and way she went! Best $100 I ever spent that didn't include drinks and a motel room! ----- Thanks for the advice, fellows; while those hints didn't get it started, it for darn sure did get it running smoother once it did start. ----- Lesson learned - when all else fails, clean the darn carb! Again! [/QUOTE]
